I was reading Jim Smith's book on "Get better sound" and he talks about the advantages of keeping the potentiometer (volume control) at 11-3pm settings to achieve optimal reproduction. Does this hold true in the land of Shindo and do any users try to achieve this by adjusting the amp gain levels?
Also, I have always thought the Shindo preamp potentiometer to be somewhat unique, in that as you increase the gain level it doesn’t seem to increase the overall db as readily. The mid range volume seems to rise faster than the level of dynamics, resulting in a slight disconnect.
The overall sound is superb.
